While I understand that one second is a human invention and can’t be taken as significant, the
equations have meaning in that there are two equations each utilizing a second so they are
connected. But what really makes me wonder is how one can predict carbon, and the other
hydrogen so accurately with the unit of a second. It was a conspiracy on the part of those who
formulated the duration of a second a long time ago to be what it is? The Ancient Egyptians,
The Babylonians, The Julian calendar—who, what, when?!
6 protons gives a little more than a second. This makes a shorter day. We have!
Equation 2. !
H=1.00784 g/mol, carbon = 6 protons!
h=6.62607E-34, r_p=0.833E-15, G=6.67408E-11, c=299,792,459!
The Second
But actually the second might have physical meaning beyond what is here. Not only is the
second related to the earth orbital period but, to other things; By dividing the day into 24 hours,
the hour into 60 minutes, and the minute into 60 seconds, the second is 1/86400 of day. By
doing this we have a twelve-hour daytime at spring and fall equinox on the equator, 12 being
the most divisible number for its size (smallest abundant number). That is to say that twelve is
evenly divisible by 1,2,3,4,6 which precede it and 1+2+3+4+6=16 is greater than twelve. As
such there is about one moon per 30 days and about 12 moons per year (per each orbit) giving
us a twelve-month calendar. This is all further convenient in that the moon and earth are in very
close to circular orbits and the circle is evenly divisible by 30, 45, 60, and 120 if we divide the
circle into 360 degrees which are special angles very useful to the workings of physics and
geometry. Further, the 360 degrees of a circle are about the 365 days of a year (period of one
earth orbit) so as such the earth moves through about a degree a day in its journey around the
sun. Thus, through these observations down through the ages since ancient times we have
constructed the duration of a second wisely enough to make a lot work together. Now we see 6
protons, which is carbon the core element of biological life on the planet where all of this came
together is deeply connected with the second that defines it all. With this idea of proton-
seconds describing hydrogen and carbon the basis of life the hydrocarbons in a cycle of 6 with
respect to one another, the motion of the earth around the sun and moon around the earth, and
the basis of geometry the 360 degree circle, equation 1 connects them with the universal
constant of gravitation, the speed of light, the fine structure constant and Planck’s constant
that characterize the physics of the atom. I really wonder if other star systems are connected
so well to their planets with their star as is the Earth with the Sun. We really can’t resolve
planets around other stars because the stars are too far and so bright compared to their
orbiting planets and the planets have to be large enough to be inferred by the motion they
induce in the star they orbit. It is hard to do so with earth sized planets that might harbor life.!
